Abstract For the first time in the Kruglaya Bay of the Black Sea, 25 taxa of Bacillariophyta from 17 genera were found, three of them were new for the Crimea and the Black Sea Halamphora tenerrima , Amphora tenuissima , and Navicula antonii . Marine (40%), coastalbrackish (32%) and boreal-tropical (32%), arctic-boreal-tropical (24%), boreal and cosmopolitan (20% and 16%, respectively) prevailed. The morphological characteristics of the species in the SEM (scanning electronic microscope) and LM (light microscope), as well as the occurrence, ecology, phytogeography, and general distribution in various regions of the World Ocean are given.
